Well, I used three brads on the lower right with a Blue Circle under the center larger brad! I love this image and hadn't used it - and the stars were cut a long time ago - I wanted to use them and I thought they fit with this Bugaboo guy - USA Cowboy - check him out at their store! and don't forget - Bugaboo is very generous to give a freebie every week - I try to buy one along with it to show my appreciation!

And I used their haunted house backdrop! Hang in there girl!! Hey - come join them - I love a little healthy competition and besides they do the "random" thing - we all have a chance!

And, I decided to play along - these are mostly things done from my stash - I paperpieced this littler girl a while ago, cut the leaves and yellow flower and the nestie negative, etc etc. I added the BRADs on the bottom and went across the bottom of the Bingo! So.....BINGO!!!

Too fun! This is one of The Paper Shelter's fun images! This was one of the precolored images. I cut it twice - the second time the characters a bit bigger than the original! Too fun - popped them up and used my new Spellbinders labels/tags! A little faux stitching, etc. These two are just charming! Oh wait - that's the challenge - Charming at The Paper Shelter!

Kenny K's Krew is having another fabulous challenge - THINK PINK! This month is Breast Cancer Awareness - I've made multiple cards - I have a friend/trainer that just had surgery and I decided to make her a get well card! So....this one's for you Rebekah! I love pink and I love the way this card came out! I've been so into the simple - I had the Get Well Soon image already printed - I love using "stash" stuff! So....thanks for another great challenge and check out the Kenny K's downloads and find some fabulous images!

Do you know someone right now who is feeling a little under the weather?
With Fall comes the onset of cold, wet weather, and the kids back in
school spreading around germs, so unfortunately, it's hard to fend off
all those colds and flu! Let's show we care this week with some GET
WELL cards! I used this fun coffee image from our fabulous designer -- I'm a coffee-aholic - so this is perfect and I love the sentiment - a little different than the regular - GET WELL ---

I made this for one of the "old timers" at our firm! Yup - you read that right! Joe S is 90 and still working! He's a funny guy with, as you would probably guess, NO FILTER left on his mouth. The old people get the less inhibited by their comments and / or actions! But it's al good! I do hope you come play with us this 2 weeks and maybe you could be the lucky winner of some images from our wonderful sponsor!! Stay tuned for more!

This is a reminder post!! Don't forget at Lollipop Crafts Challenge Blog we are still at it!! It's my turn to do the sponsor spotlight and I used one of the Karber images above!

This was too much fun!! I love the black orange thing -- well, I added brown!! This was a fun challenge! I used the lion along with the lion paper - a little color and a funny sentiment! I decided to join Kenny K's Krafty Krew's challenge this week! I used the Happy lion image - he's too fun!!

I decided to use the "colored" Frankie. He is too cute! I used negative and leftovers on this card! The good is the positive on the top and the negative on the bottom. The mat is a "mistake" and the tag is one that's been sitting around a while! I distressed the tag and that's it - I can't wait to send this off!!

Sunday, October 7, 2012

Well, this is just the best Frankie around. You can find him at the Meljen's Store - I love the spider web and decided to fussy cut him and the bats - the sentiment is on spellbinders - actually pretty simple card - but I'm into simple lately! I decided to play along with the Meljens Anything Goes Challenge this Week!

I used Halloween Little Ghost and you will find it in the JSL Store -- I made a simple card and yes - I know - I'm into simple! My life has been so hectic that that's what's on my plate - simplicity! But -- it still is made from the heart!! Now go check out what the team has come up with and join us - you could win some of the JSL images - they are way too fun!

Witch Pattieboop Caldron is too cute! I love the sentiment (from Bugaboo). This two week challenge at Pattie's Creations Design Challenge is all about TAGS! That's right and we all know tags are in all forms! I decided to make the sentiment my tag - I'm actually sending our Halloween cards this year - normally I make a zillion and then don't sent them to anyone! I thought it would be fun to send them to some (selected) clients as an unexpected card! Of course, not everyone believes in Halloween so I won't send them to everyone - but come have fun with us! The little glittery moon was a piece of glitter paper from another cut - which one - I just have no clue!!
